WASHINGTON — Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. plans to oust all 16 members of a task force that recommends which preventive health services, such as cancer screenings, must be covered by insurance, according to a source familiar with the plans.

Kennedy views the group — the United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) — as too “woke,” the source told ABC News.

The Wall Street Journal first reported the secretary’s plans.

HHS spokesman Andrew Nixon said in a statement that “no final decision has been made on how USPSTF can better support HHS’ mandate to Make America Healthy Again.”

A scheduled meeting of the task force was abruptly canceled earlier this month, with no reason given.
